Who needs sleep anyway???
Over the past three nights, I have not gotten more than four hours of sleep at a time. I have followed up these nights with one of CollegeHumor.Com's ten commandments to college with the art of napping. While napping may seem immaculate while lying in bed I tend to notice that the energy I get from a nap does not compare to the energy I get from a full nights sleep. When I noticed napping still left me dozing off during class, I turned to another means. I am currently running on the phenomenon of caffiene. Early on in the day it may be a cup of coffee or as the day goes on I might throw down a bottle of vault with my lunch. Other more extreme forms may be caffiene pills (I'd recommend use only for studying for major exams or tests). While my brother is very opposed to artificial forms of energy (that sounded wierd) ... I am all for anything that gives me an edge. And honestly, I am much more happy when I am going through my day awake and alert. Where do you stand?

I cannot agree more with your brother. Everytime I find myself going to take a short one hour nap it some how turns into a 3 hour extravaganza. Artifical energy is all well and good, when you need to burn the midnight oil. I find that energy drinks are somewhat bush leauge to the energy you get from a cup of coffee.
I know just how you feel, I try to take a short nap and it turns into like a four hour thing and then my sleep schedule is all off. It is kind of annoying!!
